Manchester City v Spurs: Repping both

A trio of Barcelona legends are included in Nolito’s ultimate footballer.

Our Spanish forward opted for Lionel Messi, Carles Puyol and Xavi as he became the latest Manchester City player tasked with creating a super player from team-mates past and present.

There was high praise for former Camp Nou colleagues Messi and Xavi, who were selected in the left foot and vision departments, respectively.

There’s no doubt in Nolito’s mind that the Argentine forward is the best in the world, while our No. 9 says that nobody can spot a pass quite like the legendary Spanish playmaker.

Puyol earns an inclusion thanks to a passion Nolito says was inspiring to any young player, while his current skipper, Vincent Kompany, gets the nod for a strength that has his team-mate claiming he's made of steel!
